ARGH! I am tired and want to sleep but I'm crampy and totally keyed up!

Thanks styltryn! I really really hope the timing was right. Medical texts say frozen sperm can live 24-72 hours inside the woman but optimal chances are in the first 12-24 hours... the overwhelming concensus also seems to be that timing an IUI either 6 hours before or after ovulation gives the best chances...

Gosh, I sure hope I am ovulating NOW NOW NOW... maybe if I do jumping jacks or something.LOL!

I'm just doing a single IUI... I did find some clinical studies on bb IUIs and they say that the improvement in your chances is "not clinically significant"... there's like a 1-2% improvement in your chances and that could just be the margin of error.

Ok, gonna go try sleep again... yeesh!
